Fleisch Klops

Und noch ein Titel, der wahrscheinlich demnächst in die heavy rotation rutscht (und in ein paar Wochen kann man ihn nicht mehr hören), aber jetzt so ganz frisch einen ziemlichen Eindruck macht. Die neue von Meat Loaf, "Did I Say That", schlägt bei mir gut ein.

So this is what it feels like
To be the one left behind
To give it all you got then find
You?ve already changed your mind
And I don?t wanna be wide awake
Clinging to a love that can?t be saved
And hanging on the edge of every word that you say

And so I ask myself do I love you so much that I?m willing to let you go?
And at the tip of my tongue the answer is yes
But at the bottom of my heart I?m wondering did I say that?
Sometimes you know I overreact
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back

And you know I drag myself through fire at your side
And you know the gates of heaven are surely opened wide
And I need some sympathy and I need someone to call my own
I?m standing in the line of my mistakes and I?m begging you to come home

And so I ask myself do I love you so much that I?m willing to let you go?
And at the tip of my tongue the answer is yes
But at the back of my mind I?m wondering did I say that?
Sometimes you know I overreact
And what I say is not a matter of fact
And I wish that I could take it all back

And I need some sympathy
And I want a love to call my own
I wanna take you in the backseat and slowly drive you home
And I know you need some time to run and hide
But the truth is hard to swallow when you?re choking on your pride

And I don?t wanna be this wide awake
Fighting for a love that I can?t save
And hanging on the edge of every word you say
Knowing that it might make me cry
And I don?t wanna be this complicated
You can drag it out but I?ll be waiting
I stumbled but I love you tonight
But it sounded like a fight

Did I say that?
Did I say that?

And I wish that I could take it all back
